CUBE Color Planter

Keep fresh herbs and small houseplants growing with the LECHUZA CUBE Color Self-Watering Planter. Featuring a modern cube shape, subtle fabric-look texture, and convenient wick irrigation system, this compact planter makes plant care simple. Just insert the included wick into a compatible nursery pot, place it inside CUBE Color, and fill the reservoir. No repotting required! Perfect for kitchen counters, windowsills, desks, and shelves.

Why Choose CUBE Color?

• No Repotting Needed: Place compatible store-bought herbs and houseplants directly into the planter in their original nursery pots.
• Easy Wick Irrigation: The included watering wick draws moisture from the built-in reservoir into the plant's existing growing medium.
• Perfect for Fresh Herbs: Keep basil, parsley, mint, and other kitchen herbs close at hand.
• Modern Fabric-Look Finish: Subtle textured detailing adds style to kitchen counters, desks, and windowsills.
• Two Compact Sizes: Choose CUBE Color 14 or 16 based on your plant's nursery-pot diameter.
• Water Level Indicator: Easily check when the reservoir needs additional water.
• Lightweight & Durable: High-quality, shatterproof, UV-resistant plastic.
• Designed for Indoor Use: Ideal for kitchens, living rooms, offices, and other indoor locations.

CUBE Color Size Comparison

Both sizes feature the same easy-to-use wick irrigation system. Choose your size based on the diameter of the nursery pot you plan to place inside.

Measurements are approximate. Check the diameter of your existing nursery pot, including its rim, before selecting a size. CUBE Color is designed to hold a compatible grow pot rather than planting directly into the decorative outer container.

Which CUBE Color Size Should You Choose?

• CUBE Color 14: Designed for nursery pots approximately 3.9-4.7 inches in diameter. Great for smaller herbs, compact houseplants, desks, and windowsills.
• CUBE Color 16: Accommodates larger nursery pots approximately 5.1-5.9 inches in diameter. Ideal for fuller herbs, larger houseplants, and kitchen arrangements.

Best Plants for CUBE Color

CUBE Color is particularly useful for store-bought herbs and compact indoor plants that can remain in their existing nursery pots.

• Basil: Keep fresh leaves close at hand for cooking, with plenty of bright light.
• Parsley: A convenient kitchen herb for frequent harvesting.
• Mint: Enjoy fresh mint indoors without needing a separate decorative pot.
• Chives: Compact, upright leaves work well in a sunny windowsill.
• Small Houseplants: Pothos, Peperomia, Fittonia, and small Philodendron varieties.

Planting Tip: The wick system is best suited to plants that appreciate relatively consistent moisture. Herbs such as rosemary and thyme generally prefer drier conditions, so monitor moisture carefully and avoid keeping their roots continuously wet. Provide sufficient light for healthy herb growth.

How the Wick Irrigation System Works

Unlike traditional self-watering planters that require repotting, CUBE Color uses a watering wick that works with the plant's original nursery pot. The wick transports water from the reservoir into the growing medium to help maintain moisture around the roots.

Easy Setup - No Repotting Required

1. Choose Your Plant: Select an herb or houseplant in a compatible nursery pot with suitable bottom drainage openings.
2. Insert the Wick: Insert the included watering wick into the bottom of the nursery pot as directed by LECHUZA.
3. Place the Pot Inside: Set the nursery pot into CUBE Color with the wick extending into the reservoir.
4. Add Water: Fill the reservoir according to the water level indicator and the manufacturer's instructions.
5. Monitor Moisture: Check the growing medium periodically and refill as needed based on the plant's water requirements.

Watering Tip: The self-watering system reduces manual watering but does not eliminate the risk of excessive moisture. Check your plant regularly, especially during its adjustment period, and avoid leaving moisture-sensitive plants continuously wet.
